A Reddit thread asked users who’ve won a ‘lifetime’ supply of something to share their experiences. The responses are filled with hilarious and sometimes heartbreaking tales about the reality of such prizes.
One user shared that they won a lifetime supply of donuts at a local bakery, only to have the prize revoked when the original owner passed away and his son took over the business. Another user won a lifetime supply of M&Ms after finding a white M&M, but the prize was a voucher that few stores accepted, leaving them to consume the entire supply in a month.
Other stories highlight the practical challenges of lifetime supplies, with people receiving large quantities of items all at once, like 100 boxes of ice cream sandwiches or four pallets of plastic car models. These experiences show that while the initial excitement of winning a lifetime supply is real, it’s not always as glamorous as it seems.
While some people managed to enjoy their prizes for years, others were disappointed by the limited time offers, the change in ownership of the businesses, or the simply overwhelming amount of product. The thread offers a unique glimpse into the world of winning big, highlighting both the joy and the challenges that come with it.
